Hey there Earthlings, Alternatives and Trollers. Put down that mouse and lend an ear. Welcome to The Bandersnatch blog where we talk weird, wacky and wondrous. I'm The Bandersnatch and I have no idea what I'm doing.

Today's books I suggest are: The house Saphir by Marissa Meyer and Secret Nights and Northern Lights by Megan Oliver

THE HOUSE SAPHIR

by

Marissa Meyer

Mallory Fontaine is a fraud. Though she comes form a long line of witches, the only magic she possesses is the ability to see ghosts, which is rarely as useful as one would think. She and her sister have maintained the family business, eking out a paltry living by selling bogus spells to gullible buyers and conducting tours of the infamous mansion where the first of the Saphir murders took place.

Mallory is a self-proclaimed expert o Count Bastien Saphir–otherwise known as Monsieur Le Bleu–who brutally killed three of his wives more than a century ago. But she never expected to meet Bastien's great-great grandson and heir tot he Saphir estate. Armand is handsome, wealthy, and convinced that the fontaine sisters are as talented as they claim. The perfect mark. When he offers Mallory a large sum of money to rid his ancestral home of Le Bleu's ghost, she can't resist. A paid vacation at Armand's country manor?, It's practically a dream come true, never mind the ghosts of murdered wives and the monsters that are as common as household pests.

But when murder again comes to the House Saphir, Mallory finds herself at the centre of the investigation–and she is almost certain the killer is mortal. If she has any hope of cashing in on the payment she was promised, she'll have to solve the murder and banish the ghost, all while upholding the illusion of witchcraft.

But that all sounds relatively easy compared to her biggest learning to trust her heart. Especially when the person her heart wants to the most might be a murderer himself.

SECRET NIGHTS AND NORTHERN LIGHTS

by

Megan Oliver

Mona <iller lives her life by She's just fine, thanks; all good; not a problem! Everything is right as rain–even if it's all a lie. Everyone at the travel magazine where she works knows her as a team player (In other words; the one who won't complain about the endless fluff pieces pushed her way). But, feeling snubbed after being passed over for a promotion, Mona jumps at an international assignment to Iceland, even though she's woefully unprepared.

She's determined to prove her worth, though, and her can-do attitude will scale any glacier. But the freelance photographer paired with her is none other than Benjamin Carter. Ben, her childhood best friend who understood her even when her family didn't. Ben, her first love–first eberything. And Ben, the boy who ghosted her fourteen years ago and left her broken hearted.

There is a decade's worth of resentment Mona needs to ignore if she wants to make it through this trip. She'll put on her “No Worries!” and hold Ben at a distance. But the more time they spend together, the more the ice around her heart melts. And as those old feelings spark back to life, Mona must decide if she's willing to go on the biggest adventure of all.
